ISBN10: 071562833X, ISBN13: 9780715628331, [publisher: International Publishers Marketing] Hardcover Duckworth, London, 1998. VII,248p. Hard bound with dust wrps. Spine gilt titled. 'More encomium than biography, Levi's work traces the great Roman poet's inspirations and influences backward and forward through time, via close readings of classical and modern texts. Though not an introduction, this rich analysis offers bountiful insights to anyone already familiar with the Aeneid and the poet's early works. Granted, personal information about Publius Vergilius Maro is difficult to come by--only two ancient biographies exist, both just a few pages long. Thus, Levi, the biographer of Tennyson, Horace, and Edward Lear, weaves together historical analysis, gossip, and close readings of the poet's oeuvre to infer a portrait of the poet. Springing from the Greek Homeric tradition of the Odyssey, Virgil created a new kind of hero in Aeneas: mythic, but also bound by human dilemmas. Levi does an excellent job of teasing out Virgil's struggles with Homeric traditions of mythology and composition, and melding them with contemporary Roman experience under the rule of Augustus, who commissioned the Aeneid (Virgil also had another wealthy patron to thank for a comfortable living). Levi traces the poet's relationships with authors such as Horace, whom he knew personally, and others he had most certainly read, such as Lucretius and Cicero.' (KI ...

London, United Kingdom: Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd. New. Date: 1998. Hardcover. 071562833X .*** FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request *** – – *** IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - FLAWLESS COPY, BRAND NEW, PRISTINE, NEVER OPENED -- Publishers Weekly: Author of several books on natural history, including The Wolf Almanac, Busch returns with an account of the time he spent photographing grizzly bears in a pristine valley in British Columbia. (He uses pseudonyms for place names in order to protect the area from hunters. ) For four years, Busch woke up at five in the morning, drove two hours along old logging roads and hiked three hours through brush to the two blinds he had built near the bend of a salmon-filled river. There he lay in wait with his cameras for the wildlife of the valley? cougars, wolverines, lynx, caribou, marten, blue herons? to appear around him. Busch saw many grizzlies gather salmon from the river, and his book provides ample information on the habits and history of these enormous animals. Unfortunately, his writing lacks the richness and complexity necessary to smoothly blend his memoirs (he spends many sections recalling his own history and attraction to nature) and his research. Even more disappointing are Busch's photographs: the most beautiful among them, and these are gorgeous, are of birds, trees and landscapes, not bears. Nonetheless, Busch's light, conversational to ...
